Valenzuela's Cy Young nod

You point out another glaring example of the big market coastal teams like the Yankees, Red Sox, Dodgers, Mets getting all the media hype for their teams and players while ignoring the teams in-between, in fly over country. Let's see what happens this year with the AL MVP and Cy Young awards. I'm pulling for the Twins Joe Mauer and the Royals Zach Grienke but I suspect it will be the Yankees CC Sabathia and Mark Texeira or Derek Jeter. Let's see how it plays out.

I wouldn't call the reaction upset

Sure you probably could find a few people "upset." But the vast majority of folks were either bemused or outright laughing.

The right didn't have a rooting interest going in and the left seems to have lost its stomach for supporting dissidents in third world countries that have communist dictatorships.
